Clarence River and Tamworth, N.8.W. (Mr. A. M. Lea). 



I have received this species from Mr. Lea under the name of 

 Bryaxis dominorum, King, but this last species belongs to the 

 genus Briar a. 



E. bicolor resembles E. polita, but the colour is darker and the 

 lamella of the second ventral segment is smaller, not wider than 

 long and rounded at the tip.
